7 Realistic Partner Expectations Samples For Women

The proper way to describe partner expectations

We scanned partner expectations in two leading matrimony sites and realised that the format in which information is gathered from members of these sites are similar.

Here is a screen shot of “About my partner expectations” section for your reference.

I am also open to marrying a hearing-impaired person or any other disability.Although my family has been of great support in helping me grow up into a confident person, I believe in leading an independent life.
